CLASSIFICATION
BIOLOGY What is Trichoderma viride?
Trichoderma viride (sometimes misspelled as
vivide) is a beneficial soil fungus commonly used in
agriculture as a biological control agent. It protects
plants from harmful fungi and improves plant
growth naturally.

Trichoderma viride is a soil fungus found in


decaying organic matter. It protects plants by:

Attacking harmful fungi (mycoparasitism)


Releasing antimicrobial substances (antibiosis),
Competing for nutrients and space

It also improves plant growth and boosts plant


defense.
MASS REARING

Trichoderma viride in large amounts Steps in Mass Rearing:


using simple materials like rice.
Materials Needed: 1. Prepare Rice Cook and cool it.
2. Sterilize Steam for 30 minutes to
• Cooked rice kill germs.
• Clean bottles or containers 3. Add Trichoderma Mix 2–3 spoons
• Trichoderma culture or powder of culture into rice.
• Cloth or paper cover 4. Incubate Keep in shade for 5–7
• Rubber band days until green mold appears. .
5. Dry and Store Air-dry under shade
and keep in clean bags.
FIELD APPLICATION
SEED TREATMENT SOIL APPLICATION FOLIAR SPRAY
Coat seeds thoroughly and air-dry before Broadcast evenly in the field before Spray on plant leaves during early
planting. Protects seedlings from fungi planting. Controls root diseases and disease stage. Suppresses leaf
like Rhizoctonia, Pythium, Fusarium. improves soil health. pathogens and enhances plant immunity.
BENEFIT EFFECT
Disease control Protects plant from fungal
diseases

Growth promotion Strong roots & healthy


plant growth

Soil improvement More beneficial microbes,


fertile soil

Eco- friendly Safe alternative to


chemicals

Cost effective Reduces farming cost
